Coaching Staff

Tory Barnes

Athletic Director

I am married to Jacqueline Barnes and we have three daughters, JaToryia, Brookline, and Jaceline. Outside of teaching and coaching, I am the Associate Pastor at Roberts Missionary Baptist Church. I am a 2001 graduate of San Augustine High School. After High School I attended Stephen F. Austin and East Texas Baptist University. I played one year of basketball at Stephen F. Austin and three years of football at East Texas Baptist University. I graduated from Stephen F. Austin in 2006 with a Bachelors Degree with a major in Kinesiology and a minor in English. Shortly afterwards, I was employed by San Augustine ISD to teach and to be an assistant coach. In 2008 I became the Head Basketball Coach, and have won over 250 games in 13 years. Throughout my tenure as a head basketball coach, we have a state tournament appearance, two regional tournament appearances, four region quarterfinal appearances and four district championships. I have also been named district coach of the year four times, and was named the Don Coleman Outstanding 2A Coach of the Year by the Texas Association of Basketball Coaches in 2017. During my time as an assistant football coach, we were in the playoffs ten years, won five district championships, regional finalist once, and state semifinalist three times. The previous six years, I served as the offensive coordinator where our team averaged over 40 points per game. In 2019 we were in the top five in the state in ppg from 1A-6A averaging over 55 ppg. I have served as head track coach since 2015. During that time, we have won two district championships, two Area Championships, and was crowned State Champions in the 4x200 relay in 2018. We have had several other relays and individuals qualify for the state track meet.

Jacqueline Barnes

Head Powerlifting & Head Track Coach

I am the Head Volleyball and Head Track Coach. Track is my favorite sport. I coached for two years in Jasper. I coached for three years in Hemphill. Although I had talented and wonderful athletes at both these places, my heart was always at San Augustine. I have now been coaching for three years at San Augustine and I can now truly embrace my love and passion for sports because I'm home and HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS. I grew up in an athletic atmosphere. Everyone in my family is very athletic and growing up I didn't see sports as an option but instead a way of life. During my career, I had coaches that really helped me. They taught me things that I would be able to carry on throughout my life. They made an impact on me and I strive to make an impact on those around me. I believe in giving back and paying forward, so I vowed that I will pass along all the knowledge and wisdom I gained to every athlete I came across. Coaching is an action, it teaches determination, dedication, perseverance, and self-motivation. I believe all athletes CAN if THEY WILL. I coach not only because I love sports, I coach because I love to see the athletes succeed. "A good coach will make his players see what they can be rather than what they are." Ara Parasheghian. In my free time, I like to spend time with my family, workout, and shop online!!!!
